Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 221 QTM's "Balance and Victory"

The Hua Guo team double-killed the South Korean team in the top 12 of the Asian World Championship. The media and fans across the country were naturally happy, dancing with joy and dreams, and flying together with blessings and pride.

The Huaguo team will go to an away game to challenge the Persian cavalry on March 3. Tehran is not a good place. Lippi and the coaching staff decided that the team will continue to rest in Hunan and start again on March 28.

Huaguo football has been in high spirits for two days. On the 25th, a little weirdness began to appear. The argument of "keeping peace and winning" that was commonly used to save lives appeared again, and it became more and more intense.

"The qualifying in the Asian region is coming soon, so be careful to protect yourself.", "The Persians are extremely cruel, and this time is their home field, so you should not be tough with them." These arguments have gradually gained their own market.

The big movement shocked Huaguo Football Shoes, so that the football bosses came forward to ask Lippi and the coaching staff for suggestions, should they follow the popular will to "keep peace and win"?
Yinhu Lippi, who is used to seeing the situation in the football world, rejected the "good intentions" of the foot shoes, and after discussing with the coaching staff, he announced the iron rule of Keyi in the team:
Unify your thinking and strive to win with all your strength, put an end to the fishing line mentality of "small wealth and peace", if you are timid, get out of the national team!

Zhang Mai then accepted an exclusive interview with the Xiangdu-based "Sports Football News", and gave a strong counterattack to the argument of "keeping peace and winning" circulating outside.

"Sports Football" reporter:
"The Huaguo team won 6 games and 6 games, and the Asian World Cup is about to qualify. What do you think?"

Zhang Mai:

"Working hard is the true meaning of football. The stadium is like a battlefield, and there is no room for overthinking!"

"Sports Football" reporter:
"Sometimes when the fist is retracted, it will be more powerful to hit. There is also a certain reason for 'keeping the fight to win'."

Zhang Mai:

"Well! The same is true of the thinking of the Southern Song Dynasty thousands of years ago. What happened in the end? Football is the football of the world. Please respect the most basic principles of fairness and justice, and don't lose yourself in the end."

"Why do hundreds of millions of fans in Huaguo want their team to appear in Russia in 2018?"

Zhang Mai simply asked the reporter of "Sports Football".

"It is the hope that the Chinese football team can compete with other countries on the world's highest stage and show off its glory."

The reporter of "Sports Football" answered quickly and slipperily.

"That's right! Since you want to drive out to play, you have to abide by the traffic rules on the street outside, and put away your little thoughts about saving energy and fuel!"

From the beginning, Zhang Mai extended the idea of ​​"keeping the balance and striving for victory":
"If Huaguo football wants to go abroad successfully, it is one aspect to improve skills and tactics, and it is also very important to integrate thinking and rules with the world, otherwise it will be nothing after all, and a lot of jokes will be made instead."

"Do you mean……"

The reporters who gradually came to their senses began to use the method of seduction.

"During the winter transfer window this year, although Huachao's large purchases in the European and American player markets shocked the world of football, they were still acting in accordance with the rules. The reason for domestic commercial endorsement."

"Why? Isn't it good to have a lot of money?"

The reporter of "Sports Football" became the best supporter at this time.

"If this phenomenon occurs in European football, football management organizations at all levels and even the government will investigate immediately, then stop it, and then severely fine the club and the players involved, because it is your business if you have money. If you use it to break the rules and normal order, you will have to pay the price!"

Finally, Zhang Mai said emphatically:
"Third-rate players are sold for the price of first-rate stars. This is not glory. It is a violation of the normal football environment and an infringement of the interests of other players. This is a crime!"

……

Zhang Mai's interview quickly spread, causing a huge impact on domestic football practitioners, and it can be said that it directly pointed to the source of Huazu's weakness.

But the instigator, Zhang Mai, had already embarked on a journey to Tehran, leaving the pit he dug in China.

Zhang Mai has nothing to do with domestic clubs or the business world, so he feels at ease and "doesn't matter if he kills or buries!".

3月28日晚20：00，12强赛A组第7轮比赛，华国男足在德黑兰阿扎迪体育场客场对阵伊朗男足。

At present, in Group A, in addition to the Huaguo team, Iran ranks second in the group with 11 points, South Korea still ranks third with 8 points, Uzbekistan stays at 6 points, Syria catches up with 5 points, and Qatar The team finished last with 4 points.

Although the situation of the national football team is very good and there is no worry about qualifying, the battle between Huayi and other teams in Group A is very critical. This is also the fundamental reason why the South Korean team is worried that Huaguo will not work hard in Tehran.

Before the war with South Korea, the national football team had a major cleanup. Many famous weak chickens failed to enter the 23-man squad.

Although the Iranian team had 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss before, they only scored 5 goals, and the problem of insufficient scoring ability is already obvious.

In the national football team after Lippi took over, Zhang Mai and Zhang Yulin's offense and solid defense are remarkable.

In tonight's game, Lippi is likely to continue the defensive formation of the previous round, using Cai Huikang and Zhang Linfan to continue to partner as central defenders, Bi Jinhao and Yu Hai as fullbacks, Zheng Zhi's position on the midfielder is also stable .

The key to this game is how Lippi arranges troops in the midfield, because the Iranian team only conceded three goals in 6 games before, and their defensive ability is not inferior to the recent performance of the national football team.

At present, there are still 4 top 12 games left for the national football team, with a total of 3 away games and 1 home game.Tehran is the first of the three away games of the national football team, and it is also the first time that Lippi has led the team to an away game against Iran after taking over the national football team.

相比之下，伊朗队最后4轮比赛有3个主场，此前两个主场分别以2：0和1：0击败叙利亚队和韩国队。

The two sides had a total of 5 duels in the world preliminaries. The national football record was only 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. Iran scored 97 goals in a row to complete a 4-4 reversal. The "Golden State tragedy" has also become one of the pain points of Huaguo football.

In the last round, the Iranian team beat Qatar by one goal in the away game. In the first half of the confrontation, the Chinese team defeated the Iranian team 3-0 in Shenyang.

但在两队总交手记录方面，中国队此前24次面对伊朗队仅取得7胜6平11负的战绩，近5次作客伊朗全部遭遇失利。

On the field, Zhang Mai found that there were Hua Guo fans who came to help from thousands of miles in the stands, and hurried to the sidelines to exchange greetings with the Hua Guo fans.

The big screen on the sidelines displayed the starting rosters of both sides:

Iran Team: (4-3-3)

1- Bellenwand;

21-Gavri, 8-Praliganji, 15-Montazzeri, 2-Muhammadi;

6-Ezatorahi, 7-Shaojie (C), 9-Ibrahimi;
18-Jahanbakhsh, 17-Taremi, 16-Ahinejad.

Chinese team: (4-3-3)

1- Zeng Cheng;

2-Bi Jinhao, 6-Cai Huikang, 5-Zhang Linfan, 17-Yu Hai;

10-Zheng Zhi (C), 4-Liu Jianye, 13-Zhang Mai;

9-Zhang Yuning, 15-Wu Xi, 7-Wu Lei.

The Huaguo team showed a strong attack signal in the first round of this campaign, and continued to use the original team of the previous round, but slightly adjusted the positions of the midfielders and frontcourt personnel, becoming a more aggressive "4-3-3" formation.

The law enforcement team for this game is from New Zealand, and the referee is Hendry. According to Clott, he is a professional who is friendly to China.

The Azadi Stadium can accommodate 78116 people and is known as the "Devil's Stadium".

The Iranian Football Association opened the match between the Iranian team and the Chinese team to fans for free, and the number of spectators in the stadium is close to 10.

10 fans collectively uttered deafening cheers, making this stadium the scariest and most terrifying home stadium in Asia.

Azadi Stadium In 1997, Iran and Australia played the first round of the French World Cup qualifier playoffs here. At that time, a total of 12.8 fans poured into the Azadi Stadium to help out!After the game, FIFA officially determined that this was the highest number of spectators in a single game in the history of the World Cup qualifiers.

So what about "the devil's home field"!Today we are going to beat you at Iran's home court, let you know who is the real Asian brother now!
Standing in the middle of the lawn of the crowded Azadi Stadium, Zhang Mai looked at the fanatical Persian fans in the auditorium and yelled out his wish in his heart.
